We all survived the first year. She was just as outgoing and happy as she is now. She talks a lot more now, although I should have known she was going to be a talker when she uttered her first question at 9 months (what's that?)

At two is became VERY apparent that this little girl loves to talk. She loved to cuddle, and was already a great big sister.

At four her personality is shining through, she is funny, and loves to make people laugh. She appreciates small things, she says "ohh that is just beautiful", "isn't that lovely", "your killin me smalls" a lot. She loves, loves, loves to talk. She makes friends very easily. She loves everything and anything princess. I almost can't get her to wear anything other than a dress. She has a great imagination, and loves playing make believe everything. She makes us laugh all the time, in fact during dinner as she told me she needed more chicken, I told her she had to finish her corn as well, and she looked at me and said "Mommy don't look at me and be a fussy, fuss" (LOL). She is very sensitive and loving. She is a night owl, she is NOT a morning person. I am very lucky to have such a great little girl!

So we finally have our Internet back. So now I can share our 4th of July pictures. We had our favorite neighbors over. A big thunderstorm came through about 6:15 so we had to stop cooking and wait it out. Finally we got back underway, we had a great evening!

This is Breanna and JJ in the afternoon, before everything got started.

This was a little later when Jay and the kids walked around to the neighbors to ask them if it was ok with them if we shot off fireworks later in the evening.

Jay shot off some little spinners and other small firecrackers for the kids.

Breanna's face in the next picture made me laugh.

This is in the evening when we were with our neighbors. Jay and Darrell shot off the bigger fireworks.

Our neighbors baby, who is 6 months old, got a little scared in the beginning, and so Breanna and JJ went over to Gracie to make sure that she knew it was ok. Breanna LOVES Gracie!!

I am proud of you and all of you accomplishments. You are an amazing woman, sister, daughter,granddaughter, friend, aunt, and nurse.

You will always be my little sister no matter how old you get, when we are 80 you will still be my little sister, and I will still be protective over you. I hope you have a great day!!
